By asking for money for the cat that you rescued you're
1. Preventing people from wanting the cat (see zero replies).
2. You're negating the wonderful deed you did for this cat.
If you want a good home for this cat, you'll find somebody suitable much easier by giving the cat to them without strings. |

The adoption fee is meant to deter people who aren't serious, or who might turn around and sell the cat to a market or god knows who else. They're not negating anything. But they could consider refunding part of the adoption fee after the cat is neutered, to ensure it gets done. |

I absolutely agree with asking a fee to (hopefully) deter the impulsive from yet another costly mistake. |

The kitty looks very much like my Zorro. Because of the location and the 100,000 won fee, you might have a difficult time finding an "amazing" owner. If you work at a school, you can try to see if there's a co-teacher who might be willing to take the kitten. Finding a Korean home might be the best choice. Also, I'm not sure if all the shots are necessary. I heard they can even cause cancer on the locations of the shots. Anyway, good luck. |

The thing is, even though good pet owners are perfectly willing to spend lots of money for their animals, nobody likes spending more money than they have to. The Nabiya cat shelter has a 50,000 won adoption fee for an unneutered cat and 70,000 won for a neutered one. Most of the cats at that shelter are just as wonderful as Hobo.
The Nabiya shelter is in Seoul though. I guess if someone was in Wonju and needed a kitten and had too much money, they might consider it. |

Well then, I'm sorry, I wasn't aware you were donating the money. In that case, then good on you and good luck. |
